This lupulin-laden India Pale Ale is packed with juicy tropical fruit character, bright floral aromas and delectable layers of hop flavor.

Our Sip of Sunshine IPA is brewed by Lawson’s Finest Liquids in Stratford, CT at Two Roads Brewing and it will continue to be produced at that location. Sip of Sunshine is a beer inspired by the original Double Sunshine IPA, brewed in Vermont (previously in Warren, now at our new brewery in Waitsfield). They have recipes with distinct differences in the hops, specialty malts, and water source for the beer, yet they share a similar juicy, tropical fruit character and a floral aroma that jumps from the glass!

Pour mindfully, inhale deeply and enjoy a tropical vacation in a glass. Always store cold, enjoy fresh and stay cool!

Can, huge thanks SinH4! Slightly hazy amber body, off-white head. Really interesting aroma, candyish cherry and light caramel and resin and mint... Soft taste, fruity, sweet peach,, caramel and resin. Medium bitter kick in the finish. Not flashy but just very balanced and drinkable. Excellent.

16 oz can at Pennsport. Medium golden, light haze, spotty head. Aroma features light hoppy notes, caramel. Taste did not wow me at first, given this beer's rep. It did creep up on me as I made my way through, tropical fruit notes, toffee, light floral and herbal accents. Slick, full mouthfeel Lingering bitterness.

Finally a great beer from Lawson convenience store, after all these questionable collabs they have made with Yo-Ho! (Japan-specific inside joke). Pours golden and quite clear, not that much foam. Hops jumping to your face a bit, herbal and pungent, dank. Taste is hoppy, herbal, clean and full of freshness. This can is only 2 weeks old. Feels super light at 8 percent. Stands up to the hype, definitely world's top class.
